The White Rhino has survived on this continent for thousands of years, until it was exposed to capitalist exploitation. Ie, the parasitic wealth-and-power accumulation of a tiny minority of the human race.
You do understand that, unlike most wild animals, humans change at a much faster rate, right?
The point isn’t “humans did this (though admittedly I did throw a little jab in there)”, the point is “drastically changing an environment can have devastating consequences”.
Because their evolutionary defense is literally defense, and not just having enough numbers to overcome predation.
Sure, there are species that exist without predation, but introduce predators (like humans) and oh, would you look at that… extinction!
Life is complex, and doesn’t have any one single explanation for how it exists.
Mammalian mega-fauna stil exists (and thrives) on the continent where human beings literally evolved.
Tell that to the Northern White Rhino.
The White Rhino has survived on this continent for thousands of years, until it was exposed to capitalist exploitation. Ie, the parasitic wealth-and-power accumulation of a tiny minority of the human race.
So… a predator it was unfamiliar with and had no defense against?
You do understand there was humans in Africa before white colonialists showed up, right?
You do understand that, unlike most wild animals, humans change at a much faster rate, right?

there is no hope for someone once they’ve fallen this far down the rabbit hole of leftism.
